Research interests:

Overall, my research interests focus on brain development and brain plasticity. By investigating the mechanisms and temporal dynamics of sound processing in both infants and adults with different level of expertise, I gained a deeper understanding of our capacity to learn and develop cognitive abilities over time.

Music and language were the two domains I investigated as a researcher. I studied the effect of musical expertise and its development on specific sounds processing (e.g. speech, polyphonic sounds, rhythm) and tested the extend of a potential transfer of training from one domain (i.e., music) to another (i.e., language) and vice-versa.

I used psychological and brain imaging methods (e.g., behavioural indices, Electro-encephalography EEG, Event Related Potentials ERPs, Time Frequency analysis) and focused primarily on pitch and rhythm processing in both domains
